Itinerary
We stop for about 1 hour. Koločep Is perfect for swimming and diving. The clear sea is full of fish and seashells. This island is rich in hidden caves and high cliffs, perfect for exploring. During excursion you will be given a unique opportunity to explore the underwater of Koločep and a short break on the beach. Also, you can walk through Gornje and Donje Celo that are typical examples of Mediterranean place in south Dalmatia. Koločep has as much as 250 sunny days per year, which together with divine, clear sea and rich vegetation of pines and olives, makes it a heavenly island.
We take a short break of 45 minutes in small port -Suđurađ. You can relax and have a coffee in old fisherman’s port, or you can do some quick sightseeing for that time! The Island is the biggest island, and it is in the Guinness book of the records by biggest number of olive trees on one island. It is historically very interesting. During the 15th century it was a chic summer getaway for the very best Dubrovnik’s families, many of whom built villas on the island. There’s late-Gothic Rector’s Palace and ruins of archbishop’s palaces. In Suđurađ, you will find many fisherman’s families who stayed on the island and kept their tradition for all those years. The reason for that is that island is furthest from town so tourism didn’t commercialize it. You will see how people are truly living on the island. Many small and big fishing boats, old stone houses and children selling seashells in the port. Šipan is known to be called “the Mediterranean as it used to be“.
Enjoy 3 hours of you free time. This oasis of peace and beauty is attractive and popular because of the numerous sandy beaches, rocky paths through the mysterious old forests, olive groves and vineyards. Lopud is known for its old stone houses, rich historical culture and breathtaking views of the unforgettable sunsets which are sure to stir up the romance in any heart. The MUST on the island is to visit one of the oldest Botanic gardens in Europe, and spend your time on famous beach Šunj, where, according to a local legend, if you bathe with your loved one, you’ll never apart. There are also more then 30 small churches that you can visit on the island. You’ll find many cocktail bars, restaurants, shops, homemade olive oil, vine, and other traditional food and beverages to taste and buy. Lunch is organized on the boat and you can choose between grilled fish hake, grilled chicken file or mixed season grilled vegetables. Everything comes with mixed season salat.

Good trip with a nice boat, kind crew, good food and a visit worth doing at beautiful islands. Went for a swim at Kolocep. Lopud was a very beautiful island, golfcar was fun and Sunj beach was very nice. The only thing I would want is cussions, more fun facts about the islands from the guide and some more alcoholic options included. Would recommend this trip to others :)
